C731 Blood Grinder Four
1Ling Xuandu was really depressed this time. He didn't think that the two experts who came with him would be so weak, and then they were killed.
One on one was still a problem, not to mention now that it was one on four, the best strategy was to escape. He immediately made a false move, turned around, and flew towards the city wall.
Zhao Yiming smiled coldly. He shot out a steel ball and hit the hole-jumping point on his leg. Both of his legs immediately went limp, and he lost his balance in the air. His big head fell down from the sky.
He was definitely the most miserable Grand Master in history. He actually crashed into the horse repelling pillar, causing his brain to burst. However, it was still a good thing that he was able to break the pure steel horse repelling pillar.
The people of Sea Clan who were watching from afar were speechless. They had never thought that their defense would be so strong. A Grand Master Stage warrior would die just like that.
Gong Yingming shook his head gently and said, "There's no need to send more cannon fodder to their deaths. The troops on the enemy's city wall are not elite troops. The harassment tonight failed. We will attack tomorrow morning."
The soldiers of Sea Clan retreated like a tide, leaving only corpses on the ground. The civilians cheered. This was the first time they had personally killed the Sea Clan.
Zhao Yiming smiled. Nowadays, the people's sentiment and morale could be used. It should not be a problem for them to hold on for a few days, but he had a feeling in his heart. It wouldn't be so simple this time. The crisis didn't come from the opposite Sea Clan. It's the internal strife of the Empire.
The next morning, he suddenly asked, "The reinforcements we are waiting for this time are your direct subordinates, sent by other cities!"
Guan Lianshan was slightly surprised and said, "The main ones are the three cities in the mainland. Each city will send three hundred thousand reinforcements. This was planned before."
Tang Ming's eyes narrowed and said, "Cult Leader Zhao means that there will be problems with the reinforcements. It is our national policy to treat the Sea Clan. I don't think anyone would be so bold!"
Li Wenwen smiled and said, "That depends on how much benefits there are. If there are enough benefits, then... It is even possible to sell the country, let alone not sending reinforcements. She could find a lot of excuses as long as she came half a month later. This city won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Guan Lianshan pondered for a while and said, "Yun Yao, go to the three cities immediately, but don't go to the City Lord's Mansion. If they don't have reinforcements, you will be like a sheep in a tiger's den if you go there.
If they don't do anything, they will immediately head to Handan City to find First Prince and explain the situation to him. First Prince will naturally make the decision for us. "
As a matter of fact, it was as they had expected. There were no signs of reinforcements in Tong City, which was the closest to them. City Lord, Cui Minghe, was Second Prince's trusted aide.
After Second Prince lost his power, he had become a man who no one cared about. This guy was greedy. He had secretly colluded with the Sea Clan and accepted a large amount of bribes from them. He didn't make any moves here.
Currently, he was sitting in the main hall. One of his generals told his sect, "The Sea Clan is currently attacking the Red Sun City. According to our plan, we should reorganize our troops and rush to rescue them as soon as possible. We are only waiting for City Lord's order."
Cui Minghe casually waved his hand and said, "What nonsense are you saying here? I only have these soldiers left. If we kill all of them, I won't be able to lead the army.
I don't have any backing now. If I lose these soldiers again, I won't be a piece of meat waiting to be slaughtered. Do you think I'm stupid? Don't mention the matter of sending troops in the future. "
He hurriedly said to his sect, "But once Red Sun City falls, the entire sea defense line will collapse. At that time, the people will be plunged into an abyss of misery, and the entire hinterland will be slaughtered by the Sea Clan. Sir, you can't disregard righteousness for your own personal interests. "
Cui Minghe said furiously, "Stop talking nonsense with me. Are you City Lord or me? I have the final say in this matter. Get the hell out of here."
In the other city, City Lord, Feng Qingyun, was Sixth Prince Ying Kai's uncle. He had already reorganized his troops and was ready to send troops to save him.
Unexpectedly, his wife stopped him. She said thoughtfully, "The situation in the Imperial Court is unclear now. Second Prince was sent to the ancestral temple. Fifth Prince's momentum is very strong.
As Sixth Prince's uncle, you are his reliance outside. This time, the Sea Clan is in big trouble. If we send troops recklessly, we will suffer huge losses.
Although the Guan family has always remained neutral, they are actually leaning towards First Prince. We might as well take this opportunity to weaken them.
Send out spies to keep an eye on the front. When they really can't hold on any longer, we will send out our troops to rescue them. It will consume a large amount of Sea Clan's resources, and our risk will also be much lower. "
Feng Qingyun hesitated for a moment before saying," But the situation on the battlefield has changed. If we are not careful, it will lead to a huge disaster. What if an accident really happens and Red Sun City is breached? "
Wen Jing said with a calm expression, "That is also because our three cities' reinforcements were not strong enough. When the time comes, the law will not punish the masses. It's no big deal. Besides, I heard that Zhao Yiming has already arrived at Red Sun City. It won't be an easy task for Sea Clan to breach that place."
Feng Qingyun sighed and said, "But this will definitely cause the people to be plunged into misery and suffering. What face do you want me to have to face those dead people?"
He calmly said," Since ancient times, great things don't involve trivial matters. As long as Sixth Prince ascends to the throne in the future, he will be able to do whatever he wants. At that time, it will also be a blessing to the people. "
Feng Qingyun finally nodded sadly and suppressed the order to send troops. He used the excuse of gathering some grain to delay the date of sending troops by four days.
Among the three cities, only Iron City's City Lord Tie Yanqing was rushing to Red Sun City with his iron army. However, he was the furthest away, so it would take him at least three days to arrive.
Sea Clan's attack on the second day was very fierce. This time, it was the cannon fodder army that took the lead. They first used the opponent's Mechanism Apparatus. Zhao Yiming saw that the opponent had changed their fighting style and immediately knew that there was a problem with the reinforcements.
However, he was at his wit's end. The opponent was clearly plotting against him, so he had no choice but to accompany them to the end. Although the Mechanism Apparatus was powerful, its wear and tear were very serious.
Take the Thunderbolt Chariot for example. It was definitely not a rush to repair it. He could only take down those good parts and reassemble the new Thunderbolt Chariot. He could only assemble five or six of them before he could assemble one.
As for the Red Shirt Cannon that he had high hopes for, the explosion became more and more serious. The machine factory in Red Sun City was simply unable to produce a cannon barrel that met the requirements.
Although the casualties on the second day were still very little, his face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip down. This was because the Mechanism Apparatus's damage was very serious, and more than half of it could not be used.
